[Qt-interest] Bundling large files in a resource file

[Malyushytsky, Alex]

I am not sure is it an answer to your problem, but
32 bit applications on Windows have a limit of 4 Gb total for the memory workspace.
Normally this split in half between code and application memory.

If the problem was related to memory allocation I would check if continues size of memory can be allocated in the workspace.
It might be not simply available cause of dll can be loaded in the middle of workspace.

Subject: [Qt-interest] Bundling large files in a resource file

Dear List,

I'm trying to bundle a rather large zip file (~60MB) inside my executable, however I've hit a problem with cc1plus.exe maxing out memory allocation at about 1GB (the machine has Win64 8GB ram, the cc1plus.exe process never gets above 1.3GB of ram, so this appears to be a programatic limit in GCC).

I'm wondering if others have hit this type of problem and what they've used to solve it (can RCC+GCC be made to work)?    Also googled and saw some mention of ICU package libraries and of boost in relation to resource files too...

Curiously,

-G
